MY FATHER

The memory of my father is wrapped up in
white paper, like sandwiches taken for a day at work.

Just as a magician takes towers and rabbits
out of his hat, he drew love from his small body,

and the rivers of his hands
overflowed with good deeds.

MKE 9 to 5 Organization

Thank you to the Milwaukee 9 to 5 Organization for hosting your fundraiser this past Friday Night at Gallery 218. In my opinion, I think your level of professionalism, ideals/values, and enthusiasm are incredibly focused and honored, i.e., by not only me, but I would expect by the majority of women working within Wisconsin.

. LA MUJER

I was

Supposed to tamp down these
Words

Hold a few men
And ideas
Hostage

What I did
Was become

Benumbed

Dumb
Struck in your reckoning

Holding my ear
To your ground

This swelling birdbath of light
The waiting room inside loosens its love

I figured what you had
Was not mine

.PAMELA ANDERSON

What I like about artist Pamela Anderson's work is that she has chosen to paint shapes that are impactful and questioning. Anderson's study comes across as bold and timeless in it's execution. I love it.

EXPO '67

a much better construct to think of.

THE MUCH ANTICIPATED GENERAL PATRAEU$ REPORT

Jesus On Ice




Fox News reports the US military surge against Taliban insurgents in Iraq has been successful. US coalition forces have stabilized and secured anti-American interests in the region and have once again reconnected Baghdad's electricity and snow cone making capabilities. Pentagon sources confirmed that Disney's recent production, Jesus on Ice, has opened on schedule to record crowds in downtown Baghdad. New balastic metrics support the recent deployment of amored Zamboni's have made the difference in securing smooth ice for the 201st Skating Company. Additional shipments of Zamboni's are scheduled to arrive in Baghdad in early October. Talks are also under way with OPEC and the IOC for Baghdad's bid for the 2408 Winter Olympics.

SQUIRREL

This past summer I saw a squirrel with a dislocated hip. Incredible. The poor thing must have been in so much pain and yet I could not tell that it felt the slightest discomfort. I will never forget that.
